Thursday October 12, 2006 All I am saying is that I would be happy with a couple of 24" monitors.
A really good KVM that could switch between them selectively or both at once would be grand as well. A bluetooth capable KVM would also be cool. But I guess it is possible that you could achieve that effect with a dongle.

Air passengers 'could be tagged'
Not quite security theater, maybe not at all, but I can't say that the idea of
tagging everyone in
an airport with RFID chips appeals to me at all. (Or really that the idea of tagging everyone with RFID chips anywhere appeals to me)
A noted issue that has to be addressed is "ensuring the tags cannot be switched between passengers or removed without notification",
we may have the answer to that problem already in hand. Someone should purchase stock in ear piercing parlors.
The future of the security is headed toward
global identification and source verification of origin of all types of
Personnel and usage of electronic identification systems to help with
disease tracking and to improve public safety. Our rfid ear tags are
International Standards Organization(ISO) compliant and we offer Full
Duplex(FDX) and Half Duplex(HDX) transponders as well as high
temperature RFID tags. The Company is in the process of becoming an
authorized tag reseller to help
surveillance organizations integrate
electronic identification with the National Security Identification
System and Management System. The NSIS will oversee the implementation
of a National EID system for many types of animals including Personnel,
beef and dairy cattle, swine, sheep, goats, elk, alpacas and llamas.

Electronically tagging passengers at airports could help the fight against terrorism, scientists have said.

Dr
Paul Brennan, an electrical engineer, is leading the tagging project,
known as Optag.
He said: "The basic idea is that airports could be fitted with a network of combined panoramic cameras and RFID (radio frequency ID) tag readers, which would monitor the movements of people around the various terminal buildings."

New Secure Communications over Fiber? Probably not for FTTH
This looks interesting, but
only for a point to point connection. Which means that with my fiber to
the home, I cannot send new extra sneaky messages to my neighbors.
Especially since I am on switched ethernet over fiber and I probably
can't afford the hardware.
I took a quick look through the document, and I am sure I missed most of it, but off hand I don't see how you get past any network device or repeater (assuming that the repeater is not repeating noise).
A method for secure communications over a public fiber-optical network
Abstract
We develop a spread-spectrum based approach to secure communications over existing fiber-optical networks. Secure transmission for a dedicated user is achieved by overlaying a covert channel onto a host channel in the existing active fiber link. The covert channel is optically encoded and temporally spread, and has average power below the noise floor in the fiber, making it hidden for a direct detection thus allowing for cryptographic and steganographic security capabilities. The presence for the host channel in the network provides an ad hoc security expansion and increases the difficulty for an eavesdropper to intercept and decode the secure signal.
